As usual coming up to election time we are constantly bombarded with election posters and mass media coverage highlighting the importance of exercising your 'spectator' role in society by voting for a ruler. How insulting! as the fact is if voting changed anything it would be made illegal! Politicians are merely puppets which give the illusion that ordinary people have a real say in our so-called parliamentary democracy, but the real power lies with the State bureaucracy and in the boardrooms of the very rich and privileged within our society. Let's face it ticking a box every couple of years for a power hungry politician is a waste of time and is only empowering a minority of rulers who are rarely visible in between elections, irremovable and do not have to legally abide by the mandate they were elected on. read full story / add a comment

Richard Boyd Barrett, Chair of the IAWM said; “In an attempt to stop anti-war protests and other political events City Council officials in Dublin and across the country have implemented a ban on postering. The Irish Anti War Movement along with other groups organising the STOP BUSH demonstrations on June 25th and 26th believe the ban on postering is an infringement of civil rights.
